Game blog: KU football at No. 6 Oklahoma

3rd & 7 37yd

Bender was walking up toward the line of scrimmage to yell out something and Fontana snapped it to him early.
Play is a false start penalty on Bender, per official. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:43:21 AM
That made it 3rd & 11 and Bender passed to Pooka for 5 yards.
4th & 6 at OU 40-yard line....

You'll never believe this.
KU called timeout on 4th down and manageable in plus territory. #KUfball

After timeout on 4th & 6 at OU 40, Bender sped up on pass toward Pooka in right flat. Incomplete.

Beaty continues to be the bacon of timeout calls!

Bender May make return appearance to not top ten

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:48:18 AM
RB Dom Williams, who had 4 runs for 32 yards, is out due to injury. #KUfball

The Beaty era lives on!

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 1:57:13 AM
0 timeouts left on KU's final possession of the half.
Pooka runs for 10 yards, then 19.
Then clock hits 0:00.
10 carries for 137 yards for Pooka in 1st half. #KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 1:59:13 AM
As both teams began running toward their respective locker rooms before halftime, their paths crossed and a lot of barking back and forth went down without anything escalating further it appeared. #kufball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 2:01:36 AM
Fox guys are drinking the kool aid saying Beaty has made KU much better and think he should get another hc job??????

by David Kemp 11/18/2018 2:05:50 AM
Pretty even game, statistically.
But OU offense would probably have 4 TDs to KU's 1 if Mike Lee hadn't come up with that strip in 1Q.

Bad decision by Kyler Murray and Shak Taylor picks it out of the air along the left sideline. #kufball
That ends OU's first series of 2nd half pretty quickly.

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 2:21:32 AM
Pooka Williams should have been tackled who knows how many times but refuses to give up on the play and gains 8 yards to get KU in 3rd & 4. Herbert converts it with 5-yard run.
#KUfball

by Benton Smith via twitter 11/18/2018 2:24:20 AM
KU offense once again capitalizes on a KU defensive takeaway with a TD drive.
Khalil Herbert takes it across the goal line from 3 yards out.

Murray takes off on 4th & short at KU 28 for 5 yards and a 1st down.
Sooners have finished 3 drives that didn't include KU takeaways with a TD. #KUfball
We'll see if they can make it 4.

Give Beaty credit, he hasn't lost the players but that is why it is so frustrating, we have some talent and it feels like it was wasted on bad game management and bad talent evaluation

by Eric Eakins 11/18/2018 3:38:25 AM
Williams is just incredible.

by Bill Dunn 11/18/2018 3:38:26 AM

Well designed play for 2 more points - Stanley could have kept it, then made a quick shovel to Humphrey.
It's 55-40.

Tim Brando just whispered that news, "more than likely tomorrow" was coming out of Lawrence soon. He didn't say Miles officially, but Brando is a close friend of Miles' and it's clear that he believes the guy can and will do a great job with #KUfball

by Matt Tait via twitter 11/18/2018 3:54:38 AM
These announcers are on drugs! They think miles should look no further than Bowen for dc

#KUfball covered the spread in Saturday's 55-40 loss at No. 6 Oklahoma... Was Les Miles watching? If so, he surely saw plenty he liked.

Pooka Williams averaged 16.8 yards per carry on 15 attempts against OU.

Since 2000, only 5 players with at least 15 attempts posted a better YPC in a single game #kufball https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DsQeNZwU4AEg-X0.jpg
